Inhabiting Bodily Sensations For Relief From Overthinking

This deeply relaxing guided meditation gently guides attention down into bodily sensation through simple pointers and calming background music. The more attention is placed on bodily sensations the less attention is placed on thoughts, when bodily sensation is the totality of your experience there is no longer room for overthinking, the stress and worry of the mind is replaced by a complete natural calm. This works as both a standalone meditation or a pre-sleep talkdown.

Come down into the body, Be very aware of bodily sensation, The mind is complicated but the body is very simple, So just inhabit the body, Simply feel bodily sensations, Don't analyse them, Just feel them. How does the body feel without analysis, Just a raw sensation, A pure experience. Notice the simplicity of feeling the body in this way, No analysis, No mental images, No ideas or concepts about biology but just a pure experience, Raw sensation. See if the body is willing to relax a little, Just a release of tension. All of the situations and circumstances in the mind are busy, Chaotic, Noisy, But bodily sensation is quiet and simple, So fully inhabit the body, Bring all of your awareness into the body, A sense of dropping down, The simple realm of pure experience, Just sensation. You might notice it still chatters away, That's okay, Just don't get involved in thoughts, Stay instead within the physical sensation of the body, Nice and simple, Nice and relaxed, Simple awareness, There is nothing to be done, There is nothing to think about, There are no situations in the present moment, There is nobody you have to be, Let all of this go, Just be the sensations of the body, Nothing more. Visual image to bodily sensation, Let the raw sensations be transparent, A natural relaxation to just wash through the body, Not trying to force anything, Just letting go, Gradual release. Your attention keeps drifting up into thoughts, Do not be frustrated by this, Simply notice that this has happened and return your attention back to bodily sensations, Truly inhabit the simplicity, The stillness, The quiet has become the entirety of your conscious awareness, There is simply no room for mind activity, So let the body flood your awareness to be the entirety of your conscious presence. Be as though this singular sensation is the entire universe, There is nothing outside of it, There is no external world, There is just this, Just this, Can this universe gradually expand, Expand, Become so broad and expansive that no tension can remain, So empty and transparent, There is no longer a mind within this sensation, Just an open empty feel of space, There is no longer a sense of something being uncomfortable, Just raw experience, Just leave it as it is, Just a singular bodily sense, The entirety of existence.
